The Program
The Jr. Development Program
is designed for the total development of the Junior tennis
player. Private lessons provide
individual attention. Clinics reinforce the skills learned in the private
lesson. Play strategies are emphasized in structured
games and during playday matches. Tournament trips are scheduled
throughout the year to provide coaching and match
analysis. The Jr. Development Program provides a total learning
environment.
Students
participate in a weekly program consisting of:
One Hour
Private Lesson
Individual strokes and styles of play are emphasized specific to
the students needs.
Clinic
Instructor controlled drills are used to polish existing
strokes, develop movement, and create play situations. An
outstanding 4
to 1 instructor ratio assures plenty of individual attention.
PlayDays
Students
apply what they learned in lessons and clinics to real match
situations. Playday is organized and closely monitored
by Gary and other staff members.
Getting a Lesson Time
Please contact your pro as
soon as possible to confirm your lesson time. Times will be
given out on the following priorities:
1) you have first choice on keeping last year’s time 2)
returning students who wish to change times 3) new students.
Makeup Policy
Clinics canceled because of
weather will be rescheduled if needed. If you miss clinic
for your own reasons there is no makeup
(ie. sickness or minor injury). A full staff is always

that will be enforced!
